October 2017] Chevron in the Circuit Courts: Codebook 3
For agencies within larger executive departments (such as the Coast Guard
and the Army Corps of Engineers, both within the Department of Defense
(DOD)), the department rather than the specific agency was coded, with the
exception of the CIA, which has its own category. The residual category
was the Department of Justice, whose Solicitor General represents the fed-
eral government before the Court in almost all cases and whose staff rou-
tinely make policy-significant decisions that the agencies themselves
would not have made (and sometimes do not support).
